Purpose: The purpose of the learning is to facilitate knowledge of the formation and establishment of Christendom in the third and early fourth centuries, specifically focussing on the processes of defining Christianity up to the making of Christianity as official religion of the Roman Empire, as well as to facilitate knowledge of the socio-cultural and historical contexts in which these developments took place. Qualifying learners are able to explain the main historical events, the most important Christian writers, as well as the role played by Emperor Constantine and the 'Constantinian revolution' in the development, definition, and establishment of Christianity. |
